Thanks a lot guys. :p

Just in case, what about nearest home league game to the eldest child's birthday?

Not sure if you guys will include this sticker in ur lists its john salako from merlin 94 in the sky sports section he was with palace at the time and has palace socks ,dont have the number as its stuck in. I will scan the page when i get time

not sure this is the right place but my son is collection the Merlin 2006 Premiership stickers and it costing a small fortune because he has no-one to swap with. Anyone else collecting?, PM me and maybe and I'll send you a list of wants and swaps, Cheers PBr

is this list of available palace stickers on this thread ,
is perry suckling sticker number 30 , from 1989 saint and greavsie allstar football album on it

No, it's available via e-mail from me, Stu and yes the Perry sticker is on it, although possibly not on very early versions of the list.

Wa-hey! Just scored this off ebay for a tenner - very pleased with myself.

Little things please little minds...

Well done Neil. I don't collect them, but can certainly understand your excitement getting that particular card.

Any chance of seeing a scan when you receive it?

Jeez Neil
You must have been alert to spot that, a real real rarity.
Treasure it, few Palace fans will have anything original in their collection relating to CPFC that is older. (considering we were only formed a year earlier!)

Arrrggghhh!

See today's Croydon Ad, Neil - a complete set of 15 "1908" CPFC Taddys is going up for Auction in London!

I have 14 of them, so it would be daft to bid £200+ for them, just to get the one I need ("Needham" ironically)

Someone must have spent ages building up that set!

It's already on here, courtesy of Dorking Eagle, on an early page.

I reckon someone could get it and sell the others on ebay, it'd be tempted if I could raise that sort of cash in the first place.

Don't worry, I will.

It's in great nick too.

The only thing i have left other than my sticker album in 95 is POGS

just been through my card collection and unearthed these from the taddy & co 1908-

brearley
lewis
needham
ryan
swann
walker

i'll get a piture of them scanned ,

I know you are not offering anything for sale on the BBS (heaven forbid)
but I have a swap of Woodger from the 1908 Taddy series, and would be very keen to swap it for Needham if you ever wish to consider it (it's the only one I need to complete the 15)

(and make a generous cash adjustment for your trouble)

many thanks for your kind words.but as neil the eagle will tell you,i have a very huge card/sticker collection on the palace ,and my aim is to try and fill the empty gap's ( yes i do need the woodger ,,,problem is thou.if i swoop this card,it'll take many a year to find another)

:)

no probs!
If you can scan it though, it'll be good to see what the bloke looked like!

Some Taddy's have gone up on ebay today - big prices though.

at those prices..he can keep them:(
